Tom's Riddle

庭の梅が咲きました。梅の花が咲くと、本格的に春が来るなとそわそわします。梅の話から、神社、そして地元の伝統工芸の話をしています。


Today I talk about Japanese plum, ume blossoms. Seeing ume blooming, I feel I have to do something just because spring is coming! 
The topics move from ume blossoms to the shrine, and local traditional crafts.

梅の花から天神さん、張り子のお話

In this episode, I share my very first lucid dream - an unexpected experience that happened right after recording a previous episode about dreams. What began as a simple nap turned into a vivid journey through shifting dreamscapes, strange encounters, and deep reflections on awareness, sleep training, and the thin line between consciousness and unconsciousness.
I’ll walk you through the raw details of my dream journal, explore what it might reveal about the mind, and connect it with techniques of lucid dreaming, hypnagogic imagery, and even parallels with Buddhist practices. This is less of a lecture and more of a personal testimony: unfiltered, surreal, and full of wonder.
